Some years ago a wealthy citizen OF
Bahrenfeld, in the Duchy OF HOlstein,
promised worthy married man OF that
town that he would give a house to the
mans twelfth child, ifhe should have
that many. In due time No. II arrived
and the proud father asked the wealthy
citizen to make good his promise. This
he refused to do, saying that the whole
thing was joke. The farmer then went
to law about it, and although the prom
ise was only a verbal one, the court not
only decided in favor Of No. II, but au-
thOrized the plaintiff to choose which
ever one of the defendants houses he
liked best.

1t has been calculated that on the aver
age each man who attains the age of
three score and ten consumes during the
course of his life twenty wagon loads OF
food, solid and liquid. At four tons to
the wagon, this would correspond to an
average of about 100 ounces of food per
day, or say some 1870 ounces per day DUR
ing adult life, and about eighty ounces
during infancy and youth. Most modern
doctors agree in regarding 1870 ounces of
food per day, corresponding to five or
six half pints of liquid food, and seven
OF eight pounGs of solid food, as in ex-
cess of the real daily requirements of Il
healthy man or woman.
Yet probably most of us take more
than this, in one way or another, during
the day. DIR. Lancaster, from an extern
sive analysis of the dietary of soldiers,
sailors, prisoners, and the better paid
class of artisans and professional men in
London, found the average daily guam
tity of solid and liquid food to be 143
ounces. Doubtless many take much less;
but unquestionably many take much
more than this. When some one men,
toned before Sydney Smith the twenty
wagon loads of food calculated for each
mans allowance, he turned 10 Lord

Deoline of a Roya1 ramilv.

The vanity of human greatness is strik-
ingly instanced in the imperial family of
Germany. The Hohenzollern family,
whose strong men have built up the vast
military power of united Germany out of
provincial duchy, is in bad way.
The emperor is ON the verge of the grave,
and his affectations of activity in review
ing and hunting do not hide that his end
is near. His eldest son, the crown prince,
the best one Of ell that remarkable race,
is stricken with a fatal malady. His
eldest son, the next in succession to the
imperial crown, who in the heredity from
such parents should be of high physical
form, has a withered arm from birth,
and chronic succession of Assesses, in
his ears, threatening the brain, such as
brought insanity and death to the last
king of Prussia. His son, the next heir,
is but years old. The vast empire,
built up by a race of strong men, hangs
between tottering age and infancy with
two fatally diseased lives between. It is
a pitiable sight. Commercial

A widow from Bergedorf, station on
the railway from Hamburg to Friederichs-
ruhe, wanted to see Prince Bismarck.
Arriving at the castle she was told the
prince had gone into the forest. There
she went and walked about until the san
had gone low down in the sky, but she
had not met soul all the time. Much
disappointed she intended to go back to
the station, when she perceived that she
had lost her way. Seeing a carriage in
the distance she called aloud till the occu
pant of the vehicle heard her, and ordered
the coachman to turn the horses heads
her way. She said she was lost in the
wood and wanted to go to the station.
The man in the carriage opened the door
and asked her to take a seat by his side
and wrapped soft shawl about her. The
talkative woman soon came out with a
tale of the object of her visit to friederichs-
ruhe, and her great disappointment at
having spent the money for her ticket
ON the railroad for nothing, ''Well, my
good woman, look at mel am the
prince, said her companion. ''For God S
sake!' cried the woman, jumping up in
great excitement; "then I must get over
there and sit with the coachman." But
the prince would not let her, wrapped her
up again and set her down ut the station.

A Remarkable Theft.

In his native hills he was once known
as ''the boy who stole Don Vicente's
creek. Said Vicente, pompous mes
tizo, strutting in the prestige of semi
official authority, was the mayoral, or
overseer in chief, of a former convent
hacienda, now government domain.
used only as a stock farm. By way u
asserting the prerogatiyes of his position
the mayoral monopolized not only the
hunting privilege of the vast estate, but
also the use of its drinking water, and a
few weeks after the death of young Ber-
nails father, seized one of the widow s
cows, las warning to trespassers upon
the reservation Of a government water
course" ''Mark my words, neighbors,
if do not make him stop Dragging about
that government creek, > shrieked Master
Bernal, when the hailiif had elbowed his
way through an indignation meeting of
the widows friends, and on the very
same evening he marched a posse of
trlsty playmates to the headwatcrs of
the monopoly creek.
Up in the dells of the Sierra, and
nearly ten miles above Don Vicerte's $
stock farm. the boy had private knowl-
edge OF place where portion of the
brook found its way into cavern or
sink hole, without visible outlet toward
the next valleys of the watershed; and
by widening the channel of the aiiluent
nearly all the water Of the brook was
diverted toward that drain. The small
residue was absorbed in its course through
the sands of the fountainless plain, and
the next morning the mayoral was sur
prised to note the disappearance of the
sacred stream. An exploring party
failed to elucidate the significance of the
portent, and it is on record that young
Bernal was subpenaed ON charge OF
having entered into a conspiracy with
his uncle, the druggist of San Lorenzo,
to affect the evanesence of public pas

The Death Penalty in Italy.

The italian minister of Justice, Sig.
Zanardelli, has just drawn up q new
criminal code from which capital punish
ment has been omitted There is a good
deal of speculation in Italy as to whether
the legislature will finally abolish the
punishment of death. Three times within
the last twenty years the chamber of
deputies has voted for its abolition. but
in each case the senate has refused to
confirm the vote. Since King Humbert
ascended the throne there has not been
an execution, and it is argued that it is
absurd and undignified to retain in the
code penalty which is never applied.
To this it is naturally objected that King
Humbert will not live forever; that sue
ceeding monarchs may be less tender
hearted, or thatssome serious outbreak of
crime against the person might render it
necessary to make an example. It has
more than once happened that when cap
ital punishment has been abolished it has
been found necessary to re-establish it.
This was the case not long ago in several
of the Swiss cantons.- James Ga

NJ. Peligot, an eminent French chemist,
has made discovery which will be very
comforting to wine merchants all over
the world. When you buy choice wine
at an alarming number of shillings per
dozen, and afterwards find that you have
got sour highly branded concoction, it
does not at all follow, it seems, that the
wine merchant is dishonest. II is all the
fault of the bottles. Most French bottles,
says NJ. religot, are well made and
worthy of receiving good wine; but
France is inundated with bottles Of for
eign manufacture, whose name is abomi-
nation. In the good old days, when soda
and potash formed the basis of bottle
glass. wine improved by keeping; but
now that glass, like everything else, is
adulterated, the best vintages are liable
to be spoiled. Materials that are largely
ferruginous are constantly employed in
the manufacture of glass for bottles; and
upon these constituents the acids in the
wine act very powerfully, with the result
that the liquid becomes iinpregnated with
a solution of magnesia or what not
